  • wood burner in greenhouse

    is their anyone with experience of using a wood burner for heating in a greenhouse as I was thinking of putting one into my greenhouse, and was wondering if it is a practical thing to do. The temperature has been down below zero twice this week and the cost of heating is getting too prohibitive, and as I have access to wood I thought this may be a good way of keeping my plants over the winter.
    it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

      Thanks Bren I think I will try one even if it just gives me somewhere to dodge the housework over the winter

        I would recommend having a wood burner in your greenhouse.
        But if your greenhouse is small then a rocket stove style would be best.
        The principle of these stove, and examples can be found on youtube.
